Someone has scanned and posted (on the WK forums) pics of the HorrorClix set poster.

Overall, the set looks pretty cool. All the monster basics are covered (vampires, werewolves, zombies, psychos, etc). The selection of protectors is kinda neat too. Vampire hunter, Field agents, and my favorite, the ghostfinders (with any luck, a future collector set will allow me to pair them up with the Ghostbusters :) ).

My only gripe with the set is the disturbing lack of "mutant" and "nature" monsters. Sure, there's a nasty looking snake and a giant spider, but where are the giant mutant insects? The chimeras? The prehistoric beasties? The genetic experiments? C'mon WizKids! Think Starship Troopers. Think the Relic. Think the Fly. Demons and psychos and the undead are cool and all, but I want more man-eating beasts!

Other than that small oversight (which I'm sure will be corrected in the next set. lol) HorrorClix is shaping up to be a mighty interesting pastime.

And the recent announcement of AvP collector sets is icing on the cake.

the concept of horror movie franchise clix = win, so long as the sculpts are good. I kinda doubt ghostbusters will show up, as it was comidic, but maybe (still hopefull). C'mon Hellraiser/puppetmaster clix!

Some giant insects would be good. Particular for using miniatures when roleplaying Shadowrun!

I think Ghostbusters have a chance. It was comedic in nature, but some of the ghosts were frightening in some sense. Plus, Wizkids has been known to have even the most base sense of humor ;D

Also, it was in the vote they had when they were choosing collector sets.

I would actually pre-order those if they were released.

Do you know what other franchises were up for vote?

This was the list - as you can see its a wide variety. The next liscence won't be named until ~spring of 2007 though from what I've read.

Universal Classic Monsters (Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolfman)
Aliens
Predator
Army of Darkness
Resident Evil (The Video Games)
Silent Hill
Ghostbusters
The Devil's Rejects
Hammer House of Horror Set
Gremlins
80s Slashers (Jason, Freddy, Michael Myers, Leatherface)
Underworld
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
The X-Files
Hellraiser

That's quite a comprehensive list.

As long as the figures and the rules that are applied to them are true to their spirit, then there's little reason why it should not be a success.

I would be happy to purchase many of those.

AOD, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and 80's Slashers would be a MUST for me if they were released.

In regards to the poster (I just got one today), I see that 4 of the uniques also have LE names and numbers. Were uniques made into le's in any previous clix game? Also do they do le's in packs anymore like they did (or still do? I duno) with heroclix? And finally, does anyone know when the Wizard, or whatever other mags they do is coming out that has the Morgana coupon?

Must buy a brick for Jack the Ripper!

Yep! Gotta love a game with a dead hooker in it!

(look at the picture, in case you wonder what I mean)

Sort of. Heroclix have their "Masterpiece Editions" that are repaints of existing figures They are a bit more exclusive than "LEs" though.

Mechwarrior has alternate versions of unique pilots as LE. The cards are the same, but with a different special ability.

No. It was a disaster for most tournaments. They do have "super rare' figures (at least in Mechwarrior), but they are not prizes.

Anyone got a link handy for the poster?

Not off hand, but check the HorrorClix forums at the WK site. That's where it was posted.

And no, I don't remember what thread. Sorry. The memory fails as you get old.

Actually, in Mage knight, there were some sets that did indeed have LE versions of Uniques instead of the non-unique pieces in a set. One set that was done in this fashion, of the top of my head, was the Dark Riders expansion set.

I didn't even know there was some sort of send away for Horrorclix other than Jack. Now I have to hunt down that mag. So does anyone know which issue I should be looking for?

A kind soul sent me a copy. Can't wait until we get better pictures online. Like, say, in a figure gallery or something.

WK are apparently working on it. M_Tuttle has posted a couple times saying that due to the abilities being presented differently than the other clix games, the gallery is taking longer to put up.
